From her hysterical Super Bowl ad, to hosting Saturday Night Live to off-the-charts ratings, to her sitcom Hot In Cleveland, 2010's been arguably the best (and busiest) year of Betty White's lengendary career, and she's notched another long-coveted gig as it winds down: forest ranger.
The 88-year-old Golden Girls star Tuesday was anointed a honorary forest ranger by the U.S. Forest Service, RadarOnline.com has learned, as it’s a job she long aspired to have as a child, though the forestry did not employ female workers at that time.

These days it's much different - 38 percent of rangers currently working for the U.S. Forest Service are women.
As for White’s other line of work, the new season of Hot in Cleveland returns to TV Land January 19.
